If a wholesome morning filled with pilates and puppies sounds like your kind of Saturday, then this event to support animal welfare organisation The WOW Project is one to add to your calendar!
Milnerton, South Africa (29 September 2024) — Most of us know pilates as an activity of endurance, peace, and perhaps (if we show up enough times) the secret to those killer abs we’ve been yearning for. But this weekend, pilates lent itself to another cause even sweeter than abs—puppy love!
Pilates for Puppies hosted a wonderful event as part of a fundraising and donation drive for The WOW Project.
The WOW Project is an animal-focused organisation close to many hearts in the Western Cape. Run almost singlehandedly by its founder—Melkbos local Kerry Kleinhans—WOW’s work in animal outreach does not go unnoticed across the province. From organising veterinary help to serving food and shelter needs and even providing help in exhausting weather conditions, Kerry and her little team of volunteers know a thing or two about doing the most with the least.
So, where does the pilates come in? Since WOW’s work is entirely reliant on donations, the team decided to enact another unique fundraiser filled with cuddles, exercise and of course, puppies.
The events are open to anyone who’d love to join an hour session of pilates with adorable puppies present (dream day, anyone?).
All of the puppies (who may or may not be pilates powerhouses themselves) are up for adoption at the events. Take a look at some of the wholesome photos from past events below:
